Specification of Letters Patent.

Patented Apr. 25, 1916.

Application filed February 25, 1915. Serial No. 10,563.

To all whom it may concern Be it known that we, CHARLES M. TAN- ENBAUMand CHARLES J. MCDANIEL, both citizens of the United States, andresidents of Atlantic City, in the county of Atlantic and State of NewJersey, have invented a new and Improved Mucilage- Receptacle, of whichthe following is a full, clear, and exact description.

Our invention has for its object to provide a mucilage receptacle havinga glass bottle with an end inclosed with a fabric supported by aresilient pad, there being orifices in the pad for feeding the mucila ewhich is stored in the receptacle to the fabric by which it may beconveniently and evenly spread over any surface and without waste. Thesaid end of the bottle is constructed to fit a cup so that when thebottle is inverted with its end disposed in the cup, the mucilage in thebottle will remain soft and in condition for use.

Additional objects of the invention will appear in the followingspecification in which the preferred form of our invention is disclosed.

In the drawings similar reference characters refer to similar parts inall the views in which- Figure l is a view showing my mucilagereceptacle with part of the cup broken away to illustrate theconstruction; Fig. 2 is an enlarged fragmentary view of the bottle usedwith my invention; Fig. 3 is an inverted plan view of Fig. 2; and Fig. 4is a I sectional fragmentary view showing a modified form of theinvention.

By referring to the drawings it will be seen that a glass bottle 5 ispreferably constructed with a rounded end 6, which will prevent itsbeing put down with the end 6 resting on a support. The other end of thebottle 5 has a neck 7 which is curved inwardly and downwardly asillustrated in the drawings, there being an opening 8 at the end of thebottle having the said neck, a

metal plate 9 being disposed across the opening 8 and having its edgesbent over the sides of the bottle adjacent its opening 8. The edges ofthe plate 9 are then bent at 10 into the annular recess 11 of the neck 7This plate 9 has orifices 12 through which the mucilage contained in thebottle, 5, may

pass, the plate 9 serving as a support for a cork or other resilient pad13, which is disposed at the outer side of the plate 9 as bestillustrated in Fig. 2 of 'the drawings. Against the outer side of thepad 13 there is disposed a fabric 14, the fabric 14 extending beyond theedges 15 of the pad 13 and up the sides of the bottle against the edgesof the plate 9. The edges of the plate 9 and the edges of the fabric14'are then-held in place in the annular recess 11 by means of a ring16. The pad 13 has orifices 17 which are disposed opposite the orifices12 in the plate 9 So that the mucilage contained in the bottle 5 maypass to the fabric 14 to saturate the latter.

The mucilage is spread over any desired surface by disposing the fabric14 against the surface and by moving the bottle so that the fabric,which is saturated with the mucilage, will be passed over the surface tobe coated with the mucilage.

14 which is saturated with the mucilage,

will be ready for use at all times. In the modified form of theinvention illustrated in Fig. 4, the construction is the same as thatwhich has been described, with the exception that the neck of the bottleisconstructed of two sections 7 and 7 the section 7 having an outerthread 20 and the section 7 having an inner thread 21 which meshes withthe outer thread 20. With this construction it is possible to readilyrefill the receptacle, while in the construction illustrated in Figs. 1and 2, it is necessary to destroy the fabric 14 in order that the bottlemay be refilled.

Having thus described our invention we claim as new and desire to secureby Letters Patent:

1. In a device of the class described, a mucilage holding bottle havingan opening, a perforated metal plate covering said opening and securedto said bottle, a pad of resilient material having perforations correspending with the perforations in the plate .75 As has been stated, theneck 7 of the botand disposed thereover, and a fabric covering said padand secured to said bottle.

2. In a device of the class described, a bottle having an opening and anannular reoess adjacent the opening, a supporting member with anori-fice disposed across the opening, with its sides bent back. anddisposed in the annular recess, a resilient padwith an orifice disposedat the outer side of the supporting member, a fabric disposed at theouter side of the resilient pad and with its sides bent back at theedges of the resilient pad and disposed at the supporting member in therecess, and a ring disposed around the fabric at therecess, for holding15 the supporting member, the resilient pad and the fabric in place.

In testimony whereof We have signed our names to this specification inthe presence of the two subscribing Witnesses.
